To complete the Winter School Program you will present your research results and methods of your labwork in an oral final exam (DAS exam) which will be graded by an official jury consisting of professors of the University of Freiburg and the University of Buenos Aires. After the successful completion of all modules and the final oral exam you will receive a Diploma of Advanced Studies in Biomedical Sciences (DAS) plus a Diploma Supplement with detailed modules and grades.
